Peace in A Person

I looked for peace in the sunset
Surrounded in colors this day
I felt it just for a moment
And then it faded away

I listened for peace in the silence
Quiet in this moment still
It settled in for a few minutes
Until the noise started to fill

I sought out peace in the mountains
Ascending into clear air
I dwelt in solitudes’ freedom
Gradually it disappeared

But peace isn’t found in the absence
By letting everything go
External peace found is a person
Our Jesus for us here to know

Live Peacefully

What is this feeling
That’s calling to me?
Beneath all my worry
To live peacefully

A knowledge of offer
In God’s written Word
Of “peace be with you”
Here, let it be heard

Be not afraid
Our Lord’s Word is spoken
A gift that He purchased
Through His body broken

One of this moment
In prayer Him and me
A divine connection
To eternity

Light and Peace

Take me to the sunrise
One of golden rays
Light of overflowing
Setting soul ablaze

Take me to the silence
May peace fill my heart
Stilling of the inner
A prayer to impart

Take me to your being
A binding intimate
Light and peace of knowing
One so infinite

Take me to horizon
Way that you prepare
With gift of light and peace
Of You, let me share

Lady of Solitude

Lady of solitude
Fragrance of peace
Pray with me now
All fear to release

When worries arise
Just let it be
A whisper of wisdom
That you are free

A garden of beauty
Surrounding in prayer
The Spirit arising
Of offering here

Guiding the way
Grace of bestowing
Encounter within
Lord of the knowing

Of Peace

A step into dawning
A still masterpiece
Encounter before me
A morningful of peace

Where spirit is drawing
An easy release
Being of prayer
Encompassed in peace

Silent the moving
Awareness increase
Infused in defusing
A dwelling of peace

Grace of bestowing
Of me here decrease
A sharing becoming
A carrier of peace

Souls Therapy

A resting in silence
Of solitude be
A healing of sorts
Of souls therapy

Into creation
Let breeze speak to me
A nature of calling
Of presence, the key

A slowing down
Into this moment here
Of whispers attention
Where God can speak clear

A cleansing of heart
Of simple beauty
The center is found
Of just you and me

Practicing Peace

Peace has come to mean
Time when there’s no fighting
Let us turn to Jesus
A flame of soul igniting

In Hebrew, word Shalom
Fullness, is decreed
Wholly and happily
Having all you need

For Jesus, peace it seems
Not the absence of
Conflict and of struggle
But presence of His love

Let us live this meaning
A practice of to be
These words of repeating
Peace be here in me

You are all I need
Nothing now to fear
In You we’re complete
Right now and right here
